    (Updated: 2/3/16) This is the final update for the 2015 run of Dino Charge premieres. Will soon get to rolling everything over and setting up a new page for the 2016 run of Dino Super Charge. (FYI: PRDSC premiere on 1/30/16 drew 1.339 million).

   I'll let you know when we get that rolling.

   The graph below is now a comparison of the week-to-week numbers for the premieres of 2014's Super Megaforce vs. what we're seeing now with Dino Charge. The red and pink lines are for PRDC, the orange diamonds and blue line are for PRSM and the yellow line is the PRM average.

   And, just for giggles, here's a graph showing how the Saturday and Sunday viewership trended over the course of 22 premiere weekends. It's worth noting that there was one weekend where the Sunday rerun OUTDREW the Saturday premiere. Graph shows general trend that Sunday morning showing grew while Saturday slot slipped.

   Here's the 10 most-watched and 10 least-watched new episodes since PR moved to Nick. Sadly, we have three PRDC episodes out of 14 already on the right-hand side of this chart:

   I've added the premieres-only audience averages here so I don't have to keep refiguring them. These show how toxic the massive summer hiatus has been each year to viewership. Look at how the average drops each time the new episodes resume in the fall. (Percentage of each year's erosion in red)
